Although computed tomography (CT) guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is accepted as the gold standard treatment for osteoid osteoma (OO) in extremities, most researchers have omitted OO in critical sites. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CT-guided RFA in the management of OO in atypical sites. A prospective interventional study con...

Propagation-based phase-contrast CT (PB-CT) is an advanced X-ray imaging technology that exploits both refraction and absorption of the transmitted X-ray beam. This study was aimed at optimizing the experimental conditions of PB-CT for breast cancer imaging and examined its performance relative to conventional absorption-based CT (AB-CT) in terms o...

To evaluate the quality and value of contrast-enhanced (CE) chest- and abdominal computed tomography (CT) and CT angiography in neonates, children, and adults undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) using a customized protocol for contrast delivery. All patients admitted for CE thoracic- and/or abdominal CT while on ECMO were prospect...

Misdiagnosis of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) can adversely impact patient outcomes. The increasing workload on the radiologists may increase the chance of error and compromise the quality of care provided by the radiologists. We used an FDA approved artificial intelligence (AI) solution based on a convolutional neural network to assess the prevale...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential effects of patient size and radiation dose on the accuracy of iodine quantification using dual-source dual-energy computed tomography (CT). Three phantoms representing different patient sizes were constructed, containing iodine inserts with concentrations from 0 to 20 mg/ml. Dual-energy CT ...

To evaluate the depictability of intracranial small arteries using high-resolution CTA with model-based iterative reconstruction (MBIR). We retrospectively analyzed 21 patients who underwent brain 3D-CTA. Axial and volume-rendered (VR) images were reconstructed from the 3D-CTA raw data using adaptive statistical image reconstruction (ASIR) and MBIR...

The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly impacted radiology departments across the country. The pandemic has also disrupted resident education, both due to departmental social distancing efforts and reduced imaging volumes. The purpose of this study was to assess the differential impact the pandemic had on radiology resident imaging volumes by training ye...

The purpose of our study was to evaluate magnetic resonance (MR) artifacts related to breast tissue markers in breast imaging procedures. In this bicentric prospective ex vivo study 10 different commercially available markers were measured in self-made breast phantoms. Breast tissue markers varying in marker size, composition, and shape were evalua...

The relationship between the 18FDG PET-CT maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) and the type of lung adenocarcinoma is still not established. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between SUVmax value and histological grade and pathological subtype of lung adenocarcinoma, and to determine the optimum SUVmax cutoffs for distingu...
